Chef Clothing
Chef clothing remains a standard in the food-service industry. The use of traditional chef apparel can be traced back to the mid-nineteenth century, with Marie-Antoine Careme, a popular French chef, credited with developing modern chef apparel. Traditionally, a white chef shirt, white chef pants, and white chef apron were chosen to signify cleanliness. White chef apparel can be worn by both head chefs and sous chefs.
Traditional hats used by chefs are often called toques. Here at Rapids Wholesale, you can choose from an overseas chef cap or a disposable white chef hat. Both hats guarantee a professional appearance while, at the same time, helping your chefs and cooks meet sanitary requirements. A chef's hat, one of the most recognizable pieces of chef clothing or chef apparel, actually dates back to the sixteenth century. Different heights of the chef's hat may actually indicate rank within a kitchen. Traditionally, the folds in a chef hat are said to have represented the many different ways a chef knows to cook an egg.
Professional chef aprons, on the other hand, aid in protecting your chef, cook, or any member of your food-service crew from hot oil and potentially harmful cleaning chemicals. A chef's apron also helps promote hygiene, apart from lending a professional appearance to your food-service staff. Generally, a chef apron helps shield other pieces of chef clothing from food stains and splatters when cooking and/or preparing food.
We also offer chef uniform pants here at Rapids Wholesale, mostly baggy chef pants that are made of poly cotton blend, designed for both durability and comfort.
